The defending champions of the Tadra Kahani show are back to rock the stage at the Vodafone Arena tonight, with a message to start accepting those who have spent their terms in prison back into our lives.
Rishikul Sanatan Collage's theme in the Tadra Kahani is "Acceptance - Changing the Thoughts of All Through Acceptance."
Speaking after their rehearsal yesterday afternoon, student representative Sarafina Feresi stressed while winning the Tadra Kahani title back to back is one of their main objectives, changing the mindset of people would be a big plus not only for them but for Fiji as a whole.
When asked on Rishikul's chances of retaining their title, Feresi had this to say.
Also performing tonight in the Junior Division, with the theme "Rubbish and Recycling, Let’s Keep Fiji Green" the students of International School Suva hope they will convince the public to have passion, learn, educate others and be actively involved in the care and protection of our environment and the planet.
This is their message.
First timers, St John Boscoe also performing tonight with the theme “Promoting Positive Media Power in Enriching Cultural and Religious Value" are to showcase the effects of mass media on our life style and attitudes.
Student rep Helen Erenio Silvia said they are excited about being a part of the now national event.
Meanwhile, the Organisers of the Tadra Kahani Show are certain that people coming to watch the three nights of shows will learn a lot from the students.
